Shenandoah Valley Food Infrastructure Survey

As a Farmer in
the Shenandoah Valley and Chesapeake Bay area, your help is needed!

Food system
infrastructure includes facilities and resources that support a food system
such as shared-use kitchens, food processing and packaging equipment, and food
storage. Improved access to these resources is necessary to the
sustainability and growth of the Shenandoah Valley and Chesapeake Bay’s food
system.

A survey is
being conducted to guide planning and investment in food system
resources. What food system equipment do you have? What type of
facilities would you like to have access to? Where should it be located?

How you can
help: Share your thoughts and opinions by completing our online
survey. This survey should take you no more than about 15 minutes
to complete.

This study is
being supported by the Valley Conservation Council and Virginia Cooperative
Extension. As thanks for sharing your opinions, enter to win 1 of 5
$100 pre-paid Visa gift cards. (Odds of winning are approximately 1 in
55.) Also, study results will be forwarded to those who are
interested.
